As you may have noticed, I have made this site temporarily "dormant" - due to pressure on my full time job. I hope to start publishing more news later this summer.

 

In the meantime the Facebook group is still active - but not for businesses to promote.

 

Thank you and stay safe and well.

At the end of their January 28th meeting Travis County had cancelled the Bond to fund the new bridge at the entry to the Homestead in Bee Cave.
